Ming Lan hurriedly opened the window, looked up, and saw a fire blazing into the sky somewhere in the distance. It seemed that one of the big ships was on fire, and the figure flickered, and a person could be vaguely seen falling into the water; following the feng shui Minglan faintly heard shouts and fights, and Chang Dong was lying on the window, with a pale face. At this time, there was also a sharp whistle on the ship's side, like a boatman on guard.
In a short while, everyone on the boat woke up. Ming Lan woke Dan Ju and asked her to wake up the other girls, while pulling the long dong to search for the long wu. All the way, the boatman and maid were lying on the side of the boat. Looking up, everyone looked flustered. Minglan didn't look at them, but rushed all the way into the long cabin. Yuner's face pale in fright, and she was sitting there with her slightly bulged belly; she saw Minglan. Lan hurriedly grabbed her hand and said, "Your brother went outside to check, I just called someone to find you; Bodhisattva bless, everyone is fine!"
Ming Lan didn't know what was going on outside, so she had to sit next to Yooner. Chang Dong stretched out his head and wanted to go out, but Ming Lan slapped him back.
After a cup of tea, Changwu came back out of breath and said: "It's a water thief!" The female family members were shocked, and then Changwu explained the matter clearly in a few words.
Nowadays, the waterway that everyone travels is called Yongtongqu, and the Huaiyin section of the canal from north to south is calm tonight. Many ships are moored to rest. In addition to the Shengjia ship, there are also two large ships of officials and wealthy families and two escorts. The ships, plus a few of Baochanglong's merchant ships, all berthed in the shelter of the gourd mouth because they were all anchored in the river, with merchant ships in the front and rear, and escorts and passenger ships in the middle.
After everyone fell asleep, a group of pirates got on the ship at night, and first robbed and killed several merchant ships before and after. Who knew that one of Baochanglong’s ships was all carried with tung oil. During the entanglement, several trading houses The guys lit the cargo hold, and a whole tank of oil drums exploded. The whole ship was immediately flared. Not only did the guys take the opportunity to dive and escape, they also warned other ships.
Ming Lan couldn’t help shivering when she saw Yoona, she patted her hand and comforted: “Sister-in-law, you are too worried. I don’t think this pirate is very clever. Anyone who has experience knows that he should rob the passenger ship first. Yes, how can you run to the cargo ship first? It's not a shock...people."
As soon as this statement came out, Changwu, who had been squeezed, couldn't help but smile, and praised: "Six sisters said well, that's it! It's probably a group of scattered gangsters who are now being entangled by the **** , The sampan has been prepared underneath, you pack it up, and it’s good when you get to the left bank!"
All the women's family members suddenly relaxed.
The number of water pirates is not large, but it wins in the word'sneak attack', and the ship is small and it is inconvenient for the attacked to escape, so they can be fierce. The right bank of Yongtong Channel is twisted and turned into a shelter from the wind, and all the ships stopped. Here, while the left bank is a vast land of reeds, the densely clumped reeds are as high as one person, and they lead directly to the nearest Huaiyin Guard Camp. If you get to the left bank, there will be in front of the guard camp. Not to mention coming to help, as soon as the water pirates who came to chase dispersed, they couldn't catch up.
In this era, there is no concept of a lifeboat. Originally, the boatman on the shore had called the pirates to take advantage of the night to stop it. Changwu managed to get two small sampans. Fortunately, he was the one who chopped off people. Knowing some countermeasures against the enemy, he asked people to clean up and get off the ship. At the same time, they told people to light up the lights in every house of the ship, and then asked people to run back and forth. It seemed that everyone on the ship was very panicked. On the small sampan, the flames were not allowed at a half minute, and under the cover of night, they could go ashore silently.
In a hurry, the maids became more and more chaotic, Changwu kept urging, Yoon's pale and terrifying face, she was holding her abdomen, and her face was painful, thinking that she had moved her fetus, Minglan glanced at the fire place dozens of feet away. , It seems that the fight is in full swing, and he said: "Sister-in-law is unwell, and I am afraid that I will not be able to move later. If my brother escorts the sister-in-law and the fourth brother to the past, I will catch up as soon as I clean up."
Yooner and Changwu were unwilling, but seeing that the pirates were not there yet, Changwu gritted his teeth and left half of the guards and a small sampan. Before leaving, he exhorted: "Some If the money is gone, it will be gone. Come up quickly!"
Minglan nodded, and left Yancao beside Changwu.
Actually, she has estimated the distance to the opposite shore. As a promising young man who aspires to go to the mountains and the countryside, Minglan should be able to swim even if only half of Yao Yiyi’s previous swimming skills are left; the rest, Dan Juhui With these dogs, Xiao Tao can take her to swim, and the few maids left by Lu Zhi and Yoon are also somewhat watery.
This time, Changwu went home for the funeral. When the old lady passed away, he would have to worry about it. Therefore, Changwu almost brought all the belongings accumulated in the capital over the past few years. There are a lot of them, and it is unreasonable and cheap. That group of low-skilled thieves; Minglan commanded a few maids to put all the light jade porcelain antiques and gold and silver jewelry into a small bag wrapped in oilcloth. They were packing them up, and suddenly they heard the green branches blowing out on the ship's side cheered. : "Deserve it! Shoot them to death!"
Ming Lan hurriedly rushed to look at it, and saw that on the sides of several large ships not far away, some guards were shooting arrows into the water with their bows and shouts, mixed with screams and exclamations, Ming Lan's heart tightened, and immediately said: "No! Their boat was blocked, so they scattered their hands and swam over from the water!"
The girls were all frightened. Minglan pondered for a moment. She raised her eyes and saw that the boat with Changwu had reached the heart of the river. She reacted quickly, pointed at the girls in front of her, and shouted in a deep voice: "You three I threw the lights of all the cabins on this floor into the river, and no lighting objects were allowed. I took the green branches to the next floor, Xiaotao and Danju, and tied these thin-skinned iron boxes with ropes. Xiaotao has good water quality. , Tie the rope to the bottom of the boat, and then put all the boxes in the water! Afterwards, come to the kitchen of the bottom cabin to meet! Hurry!"
"Girl, why don't we get on the boat quickly?" Yoona's maid asked hesitantly.
Lv Zhi stared at her eyes and yelled: "Asshole! The girl just let it be done, what nonsense! If it weren't for your master, our girl is gone! You still dare to be long-winded!" Dan orange has a mild temper, hurry up Explained: "There are culprits in the water now, how fast we can drive, if we are caught up, we will overturn our sampan with a chisel!"
The girl immediately blushed and lowered her head.
Ming Lan was too lazy to be angry, it was not her team at all; she immediately ran to the ship's side outside, divided the guards into four groups, and guarded the four groups of girls to move. After a while, the whole ship changed immediately. It's dark, and the gods are very face-saving, the moonlight is dull tonight, and you can't see your fingers.
Ming Lan ran all the way, and quickly told all the servants and women to hide, and went to the ship's side to meet the enemy with strength. She herself went straight to the kitchen, digging out many kitchen knives, forks, spatulas and iron pestles. The girls who were splitting up came, and they all divided some'weapons' in their hands; Xiao Tao divided a wok, a green branch and a kitchen knife, and the other girls also took it.
After finishing the preparations, Minglan asked the guards to go outside to guard, and then went to hide in an inconspicuous cabin in the bottom of the ship.
In the dark, the girls waited quietly, only vaguely heard the sound of someone swallowing. This feeling was very long. Minglan knew that the girls were very nervous, so she gently comforted everyone: First, not all The pirates can swim over, and some of them will be shot dead by arrows. Secondly, there are three passenger ships here, and they will probably not all rush to their own ship, so there are fewer people; again, this ship shares There are a total of twelve rooms on the upper and lower floors. If the water pirates have no water in their brains, they should first touch the wing, so that some people will be scattered. Also, the water pirates came from the water and there must be no fire on their bodies. , The lights on the boat and the firewood in the kitchen were all thrown into the river. They didn’t use the shipbreaking boards or door frames to light the fire. Unfortunately, the wood on the boat was soaked in moisture by the river water and it was not easy to ignite, so they searched I don't understand; in the end, there is a hatch at the back of the cabin, which leads directly to the river. It was originally for fetching water and pouring water. If the situation is not good, you can dive right away.
Besides, the gang of water pirates won't be delayed for a long time on the boat. Seeing that there is no gain, maybe they will change to another boat and rob them. Everyone hid in the way... In this way, the girls are much more relieved.
I don’t know how long it took, and suddenly heard a shout from above, and the killing sound of weapons collided. Minglan knew that the water pirate had touched it, and secretly held a sharp long hairpin in her hand, and the girls started breathing quickly; listen. There was constant fighting from the top, as well as screaming for help, and then in a suffocating chaotic footsteps, the door panel was kicked open with a'bang'.
Two black figures rushed in, swearing, Ming Lan was waiting long ago, and Dan Ju on the opposite side pulled the rope on the ground forcefully, only to hear a plop, the one in front fell down first With the light outside, Xiao Tao exhausted all her strength, and an iron pot hit the man's head. The culprit snorted and passed out.
The second thief only staggered, and when he saw the girls in the room, he immediately called for someone. A maid raised the bench in his hand and slammed it over. The thief snorted, shook, and then another The maid jumped up and hit him and threw him to the ground. Ming Lan freed her hands, stepped forward, stepped forward with one foot on his chest, and a hairpin went down and plunged straight into the thief’s chest, only blood was seen. A flop came out, the thief was about to scream, he was stuffed with a handful of thatch ash in his mouth, and then he was smashed a lot by unknown things on his head. Fainted, only a sickening smell of blood permeated the air.
Dan Ju endured the nausea and closed the door lightly. Ming Lan directed the girls to take out the prepared ropes and tie up the two half-dead gangsters firmly, their mouths were blocked, and no sound was heard; After finishing the work, the seven girls with Minglan in the room looked at each other. After solving the two gangsters, their courage suddenly increased. The fear in each other's eyes was diminished a lot, and they were a little excited.
After a while of noise on top, and then a moment of silence, I followed my breath to hear ‘not here! Look elsewhere for words like', the girls' faces were filled with joy, Zheng Minglan was also relieved, suddenly there was a rough cry from above, the voice was especially loud, the girls listened carefully. It turned out to be: "...These lady-in-laws have spoken, go to the bottom deck! Said that this lady is still on the boat, brothers are on the boat! You can make a lot of money by catching them! There are also some little girls with delicate skin and tender flesh. Happy to everyone!"
Ming Lan's face turned white, and Lu Zhi was already scolding: "They dare to betray the girls!" Ming Lan didn't dare to wait any longer, and sternly shouted to the girls: "Take off your coat and dive!"
It was early winter. The girls were all wearing thick brocade cotton coats. After pulling them apart, they jumped into the water. There was a loud voice shouting outside, and the sound of footsteps came down, making the girls panic. , I jumped off my head.
As soon as Ming Lan entered the water, I only felt that the river water was bitterly cold. Fortunately, it was not midwinter. I heard a scream in my ears, ‘No, someone dived! Go catch it! 'Minglan immediately shook her arms, endured the cold that almost came into her heart, and swam towards the other side with all her strength. There was a sound of puffing and puffing into the water, and then there was a scream of the girl. Caught, Minglan sighed and sank into the water, trying not to let his head surface.
I just swam a few times, suddenly her waist tightened, and an arm was stretched out behind her to encircle her. Ming Lan was shocked and immediately stretched her legs to kick. Who knows that the man behind her is extremely flexible and turned to Ming. On Lan's side, her hands clasped Ming Lan's two arms for some unknown place. Ming Lan only felt a soreness in her arms, and then she asked the person to circle it and put it on, Ming Lan immediately felt that this was a woman behind her!
The woman kicked her feet a few times, and the two of them came out of the water. Ming Lan took a deep breath against the cold river breeze, then her chin tightened, and the woman behind her buckled her face and twisted it. Look, Minglan's skin hurts, she whispered her teeth, and then the woman yelled: "Found it! That's it!" There was joy in her voice.
As soon as Ming Lan got free, she immediately slammed her elbows back. The woman cried out in pain, and she became more and more powerful. After all, she is skilled. He grasped Ming Lan's acupuncture points and captured her firmly. , And smiled: "Don't be afraid of the girl, we are here to save you! You are the sixth girl of the Sheng family, you are talking about a pair of small vortices at the corners of your mouth!...Eh! Come on, here!"
The woman finished saying this sentence. Before Minglan was surprised, she only heard the sound of the river beating. Boats with several large lanterns drove over. The woman seemed to have excellent water quality. Lifting up, he pressed Minglan to the side of the boat, and then lifted Minglan up with a pair of powerful hands.
As soon as she left the water, strands of biting river wind pierced Minglan like needles, but before a while, a thick blanket covered her face and covered her up, down, left, and right. , And then the woman in the water also climbed onto the boat, and across the water dripping hair, Ming Lan vaguely saw a big bear-like man wrapping her clothes.
Ming Lan was trembling all over, and quickly looked up and saw that the boat was brightly illuminated by the lanterns. There were several men standing on the boat. He was busy wrapping herself into a big dumpling. He was tall and strong. Wearing an old black robe, a big beard covering two-thirds of his face, no accessories on his body, only a pair of deep handsome eyes that seem to be familiar.
Ming Lan blinked her eyes vigorously, and she suddenly felt joy in her heart, and said loudly: "Second Uncle!"
She finally knew what it was like to see the police uncle when she met a group of malicious hooligans in the small black alley, even though the police uncle had fined her for no reason.
Gu Tingye's eyes lit up, and there was no expression on his beard. He only heard him whisper: "Do you recognize me?"
Ming Lan felt very strange. At this time, the river surface was clearly noisy, shouting, fighting, and wailing, all mixed into a commotion, but from the moment he spoke, she felt that every word was clearly audible. Ming Lan hurriedly said: "Naturally, no one can be recognized, and no one can be recognized as a lifesaver!"
Ming Lan was thinking about Danju, Xiaotao and the others, and hurriedly moved to Gu Tingye's side. The white jade-like delicate face smiled very flatteringly, and he pleaded: "Second Uncle, my girls are still in the water. , Hurry up and help me catch them, it's cold, don't soak them!" Minglan always behaves very cute when asking for help.
Gu Tingye's dark eyes suddenly sank, and her long eyeliner provoked a few thin anger, as if light and shadow were flowing on the indistinct lake surface, it seemed that she wanted to stare at Minglan, but she held it back.
